Privacy Policy

Windlass Consulting ("Windlass," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy describes the information collected through this website, how it is used, and the choices available to you. It applies to the contact form and the OT Security Readiness Check.

Information we collect

Through the contact form, we collect the name, email address, company (if provided), and message submitted.

Through the OT Security Readiness Check, we collect responses to the assessment questions, which do not request personal information, along with the email address and company name provided to view the detailed result.

We may also collect limited technical information, such as IP address, for security and spam-prevention purposes. Please do not submit sensitive technical details, such as specific vulnerabilities, network architecture, or credentials, through either form.

How we use this information

We use the information collected to respond to inquiries, deliver Readiness Check results, and maintain a record of the conversation. It is not used for any other purpose.

How we share this information

We use third-party service providers to help operate this website and respond to submissions, including providers that deliver email and manage customer records. We do not sell this information, and we do not share it with any other third party.

Cookies and analytics

This site uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use it: pages viewed, general engagement, and where visitors come from. It does not use advertising or ad-targeting cookies, and Google Signals, which would link this data to your Google account activity, is turned off. A banner on your first visit lets you accept or decline analytics; to change that choice later, clear this site's data in your browser. We retain analytics data for 14 months.

Data retention

We retain submitted information for as long as it is useful to our relationship with you, and delete it on request.

Your rights and choices

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your information at any time by contacting us. As a Texas business, this policy is intended to comply with the disclosure requirements of the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act.

Children's privacy

This website is not directed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes, such as the addition of analytics, will be described here, and the date above will reflect the most recent update.
